Fantasy MMORPG PvE Raids Guilds

In Guild Wars 2, the "best" class depends on your playstyle, game mode (PvE, WvW, PvP), and personal preferences. However, here are some top-tier choices for different scenarios: PvE (Open World & Endgame) Necromancer (Reaper/Scourge/Harbinger) - Extremely durable with high survivability (shroud acts as a second health bar). - Scourge provides strong barrier support in raids/fractals. - Reaper is a great solo powerhouse with high AoE damage. Guardian (Firebrand/Willbender/Dragonhunter) - Firebrand is one of the best support/healer specs (Quickness provider). - Dragonhunter offers high burst DPS. - Willbender is great for mobility and damage. Mesmer (Virtuoso/Chronomancer) - Virtuoso is a top-tier ranged DPS with simple mechanics. - Chronomancer provides Alacrity/Quickness support. Engineer (Mechanist/Scrapper) - Mechanist is a strong ranged DPS and support (Alacrity provider). - Scrapper is great for quickness and utility in groups. WvW (Large-Scale & Zerg Fights) Guardian (Firebrand) Essential for stability and healing. Necromancer (Scourge) High AoE pressure and boon corruption. Elementalist (Tempest) Strong AoE healing and support. Revenant (Herald) Boon support and frontline tankiness. PvP (Small-Scale & Duels) Thief (Specter/Daredevil) High mobility and burst damage. Ranger (Soulbeast) Strong 1v1 potential and burst. Warrior (Spellbreaker) Great for disrupting enemies with boon rips. Engineer (Holosmith) High burst and sustain. Best for Beginners Necromancer (Survivability) Ranger (Pet helps with survivability) Guardian (Balanced offense/defense) Best for Veterans & High Skill Ceiling Elementalist (Weaver/Catalyst) Complex but rewarding. Thief (Deadeye/Daredevil) High mobility and precision play. Mesmer (Mirage) Illusion-based gameplay with high outplay potential. Current Meta (2024) DPS: Virtuoso (Mesmer), Power Mechanist (Engineer), Reaper (Necro) Support: Firebrand (Guardian), Alacrity Mechanist (Engineer), Scourge (Necro for barrier) Ultimately, the best class is the one you enjoy most! GW2 is well-balanced, so most specs are viable if played well. Try a few and see what fits your style! Would you like recommendations for a specific role (DPS, Healer, Tank, etc.)?

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
